PRODUCERS PLEASE NOTE:
* Hooks can be on your beats, but ABSOLUTELY NO SINGING OR RAPPING ON THE VERSES.
* You will be judged on the following categories:
Originality (something new and fresh, doesn't sound like anything out there).
Marketability (can the song be on the radio or on an album? Can you hear someone spitting over it?).
Quality (sounds are crisp, separation in the mixes; low end is thumping, etc.).
Usage of Elements (any samples, live instruments, etc. are placed within the drum pattern efficiently).
Overall Potential (does this producer have what it takes to get to the next level?).
